Cialis is a new breakthrough in erectile dysfunction

Posted by daviddon on May 13th, 2015

Cialis is a PDE5 inhibitor used for the treatment for erectile dysfunction in men. Discovered by Glaxo Wellcome (now GlaxoSmithKline) under a partnership between Glaxo and ICOS, It was first created and developed by the biotechnology company ICOS, and then again evolved and marketed in all over the world by Lilly ICOS, LLC, the combined venture of ICOS Corporation and Eli Lilly and Company.

Like all other drugs of this kind, the cheap Cialis UK acts by inhibiting PDE5. However, the cialis's pharmacologic distinction is its longer half-life (17.50 hours) - compared to Viagra (4.0-5.0 hours) and Levitra - resulting in a longer period of action, and so partly responsible for "The Weekend Pill" sobriquet.

Penile erection during sexual stimulation is caused by increased penile blood flow resulting from the relaxation of penile arteries and the smooth muscle of the corpus cavernosum. The prohibition of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) enhances erectile function by increasing the amount of cGMP.

Cheap Cialis UK (and sildenafil and vardenafil) inhibits PDE5. However, because sexual suasion is needed to initiate the local penile release of nitric oxide, cialis's inhibition of PDE5 will have no effect without direct sexual stimulation of the penis.

Though erectile dysfunction drugs are normally recommended to be taken an hour before sex. This means whenever, men decide to have sex; they take the recommended drug at least an hour prior to it. However, with the approval of the small doses of new drug Cialis A Day this scenario has been changed for the better.
